- What? No. I came driving.

- Came driving?

- Vim've got practice.

- At first, I was scared.

- I appreciate your initiative...

And everything you did for me,

but will not drive anymore.

- No. I'm driving very well.

- Give me the car keys.

- Gee.

- Key!

- No agreement.

- Okay.

How

know what to do to get me out of there?

I learned from my mother, because if

put in a lot of trouble with the police...

- And with Duane "Dog" Chapman.

- Who is this?

Never heard of him?

It's a reality show on "A & E".

- It's pretty cool! Do not know?

- Okay.

Let's talk about bad things.

How much to get the guitars?

I tried to negotiate,

but the guy was so...

How much is the damage?

- Thousand dollars to get back Ios.

- Damn!

Sorry.

Okay. The

is not your fault.

I'm the drunken lout.

I'll fix it.

- What will you do?

- I'll call Sloan.

- Where's my phone?

- I do not know.

How do not you?

Was next with my stuff there at the bar.

There was not.

I took everything that was there

- looked in my purse? And in the cases?

- Yes Multiple times.

Damn.

Know with whom you resemble?

How was the name of the band?

Wait a minute.

I have to take this call.

Hello?

I accept the collect call.

Just a minute.

Hi, Ethan. It's all?

What? How so?

What message?

I have not received any message.

I was arrested, Sloan. In jail.

Along with thieves and murderers.

Do you know who paid my bail?

It was not my manager.

Not even my friend who attends

the phone when I call.

Do you know who paid?

The Janie, Sloan. The Janie Jones.

She pawned the guitars to get me out of there.

Wow!

Yeah! Whoa!

I am now without the guitars

and almost no money, so...

- Need to get me some money.

- I can not do that, man.

- It's only two thousand dollars.

- I can not because I'm not.

- Of course it has.

- I have not.

Okay. Thousand dollars then.

- Seriously. I'm not.

- It seems that there's a thousand dollars!

And even if he had, you can not get

giving you money as well!

- Right? Sorry. I'm tough.

- Whatever. Do not worry.

Chicago? What madness!

I always wanted to go there!

Do not get carried away.

We will stay there for some time.

Only

to win some cash to get the guitars back.

Then we have four days to arrive at South by Southwest.

This is crazy!

Can not talk with anyone who will give us money...

To transfer him?

- I can not.

- Why not?

It's complicated.

- Wait here. I'll be back.

- Okay.

Ethan?

Lily, I need to talk to you.

Need your help.

I'm dead.

My God.

Really?

Already adult, Ethan.

I can not help you forever.

I would not be here if it were not serious.

I need a small loan.

- That's it.

- Only?

- Now I'm playing cards.

- I just need two thousand dollars.

- This is not for you.

- What would...

If he could not appeal to me?

Would that fix

a job, is not it?

It's funny

someone who never worked in the life to come tell me that.

The conversation ended, Ethan.

I will not have my character assassinated

inside my own house.

Not for me.

It's for my daughter.

Ethan.

Is a low blow, even for you.

Lying about a child...

- To extort his mother?

- I'm not lying.

- It's out there.

- Really?

Yes

There is no education.

Ask her to join.

I know I will love my granddaughter.

Can meet you the other day.

- Bye, Ethan.

- Okay.

Okay. Right.

'll Be interesting.

Lily, this is Janie.

She is his granddaughter.

Hello, Janie.

Ethan,

have to stop with this charade.

You should be ashamed.

- How old are you, young lady?

- I am 13 years old.

- Thirteen?

- Yes

- And he is your father?

- Yes

Ethan,

where you found this child? On the street?

One thing is you waste your life chasing

music...

But come here asking for money while

corrupted this innocent child...

Stop! Stop!

Please stop!

Okay? E...

And he's not lying.

He is...

I'm her father.

I'm her father.

- Let's go.

- Wait, please.

Close the door, please.

Stay where you are. I'll be back.

Sorry.

I should not have brought you here.

So...

This is your mother.

Yes

And my thought was difficult.

- Yes

- Wow!

Sorry, honey.

Sorry.

I wish I could say

I forgot to take the medicine...

But no excuses for my behavior.

She has her father's eyes.

Where are you going?

We have to go back to the road.

Can not stay a while?

No. Do we have to go.

- Where are they going?

- To Texas.

- Ethan?

- Tell.

- Can I ask you a question?

- May.

Okay. But you have to promise me that

will tell the truth.

- Seriously. Really.

- Right. Alright.

My mother was a groupie

with whom did you leave?

No. No way.

I went behind his mother.

She was...

She was cool.

- Okay.

- Was the same. It's serious.

What happened to your father?

You never mentioned him.

- If you do not want to talk...

- No, no. Alright.

I do not know.

I think not think much of him.

He was a composer.

He composed modern classical music.

Was a very talented guy.

But he killed himself when I was nine.

It took a lot of painkillers

with half a bottle of whiskey...

And left me alone.

Sorry. I should not have

touched this subject

Okay.

- As your mother gave you?

- Plenty.

- Over five thousand.

- Caramba!

Really?

Who has this money will be available?

The millionaires, criminals...

No. I looked at the cases.

- I swear it looked.

- Did you look?

I looked, yes.

But was not there.

How ridiculous.

I was not there. I swear.

Hello?

No, she's fine.

Was he? What good.

We were waiting to hear from you.

Good to know. Glad.

The Janie okay.

We're having fun.

We are in Des Moines.

Yes

Yes I can take it for you.

Yes

Wait.

It's your mother.

It seems she is much better.

You

could not be with me on the road forever.

You have to go back to school.

I know.

Here is on the right.

Mary Ann and I are

clean for a month.

- I am very proud of her.

- Thank you, darling.

- I think I owe you an apology.

- I'll get another beer.

- Want a, friend?

- No thanks.

No need to apologize.

Who has to ask

excuses here, I am.

No. I apologize.

What I said in Little Rock was not cool.

So...

Sorry.

Janie is an amazing girl.

It is.

You.

Is talented, intelligent.

Do not know what I would have done

without her in Itimos days.

What I am trying to say is thank you

Thanks for having it brought to my life

You're welcome.

Well, you'll have to travel quite

, then...

I think I better go.

Can stay a little longer, if you want

I have to go.

But thanks.

Was great to see you.

- Take care.

- Bye.

Do not need to worry about me.

I'll be fine.

- I come to visit you, right?

- Sure. Right.

- I promise.

- Okay.

- Okay. Goodbye.

- Bye.

- Bye.

- Bye.

This is my house and you will have to work.

What are you doing here?

I was thinking...

- I think you should come with me.

- Really?

Seriously.

- I think you should not be here.

- No need to do that.

- No thanks.

- Thanks for getting me out of that.

- Get your things.

- What are you talking about?

What if my mother
